Sleep Apnea
ChadTower:
Note that's only an option for OSA. It won't do anything for CSA.

OSA = Obstructive Sleep Apnea
CSA = Chronic Sleep Apnea
Just chiming in.
edit: CSA = Central Sleep apnea

thanks for explaining that in the third reply chad.
ChadTower:
No problem. When I was diagnosed I did a ton of research into the topic. Ironically, I never did become any good at using my CPAP, and don't use it now. My sleep apnea is mild to moderate so while it does affect how I feel it doesn't affect my abilities. There is definitely a weight threshhold for me, though, that if I get to a certain bodyfat % the apnea gets worse fast. It seems to be around 23-24%. I don't get any better if I go well below it but I do get worse if I reach those levels.

I used to have a similar problem when i was really fat.
Now I'm :woot thinner than I was, I can breathe better and no more snoring.
I still have the problem about getting out of bed after the alarm clock goes off, but that is a side effect of having such a comfy bed. ;D
